I've been partial to the ones from CrystalFonz [sp?] - I have one in my
desktop over 10 years old.

Hello there.

Could someone recommend a model of LCD display, that will fit in a
5.25&quot; bay, ready to be mounted with no requirements for soldering and
obviously supported by LCDproc.
If possible that connects via USB.

I read all the hardware, FAQ and the lot; but everything always refers
to LCD modules, rather than end-user product...

I've found this one:
<A HREF="http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Brand-new-nMedia-PRO-LCD-B-5-25-Bay-MCE-LCD-display-/150817426461?pt=US_Computer_Cases&amp;hash=item231d6b4c1d&amp;_uhb=1">http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Brand-new-nMedia-PRO-LCD-B-5-25-Bay-MCE-LCD-display-/150817426461?pt=US_Computer_Cases&amp;hash=item231d6b4c1d&amp;_uhb=1</A>

but it's 20x2 only, would prefer 20x4...

I looked at the matrix orbital page; but I'm unsure if I should be
looking at their USB or serial LCD.

Surely something like that must exist... Why is it so hard to find
anything commonly available?

Thank you in advance
Jean-Yves
